Well, we have been silent for a while but hey, that means we’re working hard!! And when we come back with such incredible news we believe it’s been well worth the wait! Not every day we can announce the release of such a lost, forgotten gem from a band that were true pioneers in the golden age, our beloved early 80s. Songs that have never been heard by anybody apart from the ones lucky enough to attend some gig back then. Ladies and gentlemen we’re talking about the real foundation stones of what we now call Cold Wave, we’re talking about the Italian band DER BLAUE REITER, active from 1980 to 1983. We will be releasing a limited vinyl (will include download also) in December but the digital version is already available at our Bandcamp site here: https://deadwaxrecords.bandcamp.com/. We strongly recommend you to get inside our BANDS and OUR RELEASES sections now and learn everything about this short-lived but amazing cold wave project. They are virtually unknown but they deserve to be up there with Joy Division to say the least. Yes, so good they are. Stay tuned for the vinyl coming in December but enjoy the digital version now!!!

27.6.2016
Ladies and gentlemen, our THIS COLD NIGHT – AN ENIGMATIC INDIVIDUAL LP + 7” is OUT NOW! Get inside to listen to this cold /dark wave / post-punk masterpiece by this prolific, young Texan promise. Like it dark but dancey? Grab your copy, you won’t be disappointed!

09.03.2015Dear friends, the awkward situation holding our BOYS SAY GO (DW006) and MARCIE’S STILL WAITING (DW007) at the Italian pressing are history now. Lawyers involved, we have taken these projects to another plant, a big hassle for us, but also a guarantee that our babies are going to be ready in April. It’s been months of desperate waiting but we finally solved the issue! But this is not the only news! The best is that DWR didn’t stop working during all this wait and our two new releases DW008 and DW009 are to be released before this month’s end, actually before DW006 and DW007. Our brand new jewels are FARBLOS - … UND DER REGEN FÄLLT minialbum and CHA BOOM CHA - DANCING BRAVE 12” ep. Get inside to learn about these two new records and give them a listen! As usual in our line of work, things from the present and things from the past. Quality always! We hope you like them!

17.02.2015Dear all, after MONTHS of desperate waiting and waiting again, we still have problems with our BOYS SAY GO (DW006) and MARCIE’S STILL WAITING (DW007) releases and can’t confirm a release date. We can’t ascertain why on earth the pressing plant in Italy just won’t deliver our records, promise after promise, deception after deception. Endless excuses, the WORST service that one could get. We won’t work, well, TRY to work with the Italian plant ever again. With everything paid in advance of course. One way or another we will be launching these fantastic records soon. Please accept our apologies for the delay.

25.04.2014
We would like to apologize for the delay that DW003 Joy Must Remain – Dive in deep is suffering.

Dead Wax Records is an utterly independent record label just like in the early 80s. We do
everything ourselves out of pure passion for music, focusing mainly on post-punk, minimal &
cold wave, goth rock. Quality music always, lost forgotten jewels in need of a second chance,
recently discovered treasures that will see the light for the first time. Classic bands, new-born
bands from all over the world, everything is welcome. Our main value and interest… vinyl, wax.
It never died and for us it never will.

Our first adventure is about a great Canadian band active between 1980 and 1985, Kinetic
Ideals. With awesome records in their back catalogue, deleted over three decades ago,
the discovery of unreleased material became the main target for our first release, our
ref. #DW001, the 4 song 'This Face' 12" e.p.. Enter the site and check it out! Hear it! The
record will be available here soon, but you can already purchase the digital download at
www.deadwaxrecords.bandcamp.com. What an impressive record it is! And this is just the
beginning…

Dead Wax Records online shop will be up and running in the coming weeks on this site,
featuring our own releases, records by other labels and even unique second hand items.
Watch out for the news!
